Allie's AFTER shot - it took quite a few pics to get a good one - maybe that's why she's not in any photos anymore... anyway, much better and she gets a cute little bandana.

I am thankful my boy is "getting it"!! This morning he's watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas with his friends (who didn't have school b/c of snow and ice- arggg) and was telling them about how Christmas isn't all about the presents, it's about Jesus' birthday. And then just now he tells me that they are making money (not sure what that means) for people who don't have any money because "I know there are people in this world who don't have money and we need to give them some." Makes a momma proud! We also ventured out to take the dog to a last minute grooming appointment - see before! - She is looking rough and smells... My place is always booked so when I called today and she could get me in today due to cancellations I was there - snow and ice or not!! I'll post an after!
